To the entire family of Adrienne Barkulis:
It saddened me to hear that your Mother passed away. In my book she was a gracious lady handled tragedy and happiness with her large extended family extremely well. Before we moved away from Sts. Peter and Paul to another city, I remember her always present in church, lighting her candles,mourning when the time came and was excited on Happy days with the family. I am sure she will be missed and I too her presence every Sunday when she attended regularly.
Jim joins me in expresing our profound condolances. May she rest in peace and MAY HER MEMORY BE ETERNAL.
Love in Christ,
Tina Doudalis Zoumboulis

Dear Darlene, Jim, Nick, Barbara, Nancy and family members:
I was very sad when my brother John told me of your lovely mother's passing. I will never forget how kind she and all of you were to me when I lost my parents so close together. It's quite an abandoning feeling and you all took me into your fold and made me feel so loved. You had wonderful, close, devoted and loving parents and a wonderful brother. Your parents, Chris and Bill are all together now in Heaven with God, watching over and protecting all of you. Cherish your fond memories of them for I know you have many.
Take care, love each other and always stick together.
All my love and sympathy,
Kathy Adinamis

Dear Nancy and family,
My condolences to you and your family. How fortunate you were to have your mother's love and to share it with your children, her loved grandchildren.
Both your mother and father were gracious and loving. I am so glad to have shared a small part of their lives and the lives of their children.
